Hugh Ferris/Match day presenters

People defend him by saying Ferris is not for us, he’s for families, particularly the youngsters. I was there with my young nephew and the things that entertained him the most were his free flag, seeing the players, the paper streams landing on him and seeing the trophies. None of that is Ferris. So I’m not convinced that Ferris is good for anybody, let alone us lot.
 
What annoyed me the most, was that on two occasions he referred to Raheem as sinister, when he was stood behind him....

Time to send him on a diversity course.

Ferret is the type of guy I want to lock in my wardrobe and let out now and again to punch when I'm in a bad mood. One of the few things that piss me off with the club is that they allow this dickhead to 'entertain' us at half time as part of my 'matchday experience'. I would be more entertained pouring a cup of boiling hot Bovril over my bollocks. Ferret face has about as much charisma as a dead squid!

Hahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa that seriously made me LOL.
 
I am not usually bothered about this type of thread because all that “noise” around the match day experience is usually just background noise for me but.. I thought he was a grade a twat yesterday. First the shite he said to Stones about his miss, then referring to our anti racism champion Raz as sinister..twice. The bloke is a talentless shitbag who should be slapped on a train preferably one leaving Manchester ASAP.
 
Ferris, to me, is just part of a larger phenomenon, which I'd call the "show bizification" of modern football. I know there's no way round it, no way of stopping it. It's the money, it's the worldwide satellite tv coverage, it's the modern world (and it doesn't only affect football, incidentally). But I hate most aspects of it. Probably a generational thing.
Trust the crowd to create the atmosphere, trust it to create the event. That's almost never done, now. If we're accused of passiveness, sometimes, at the Etihad, I believe it's at least partly because we've been bludgeoned into it by a truly deafening p.a. system and Ferris et al spouting embarrassing inanities to create the "match day experience" at half-time, or whenever.
 
The biggest problem with Ferris is he wants it to be about him, nothing about yesterday was about him, it was about the club. To even suggest to Pep and co to leave the stage foe the players was unbelievable, and his comments to Tommy Booth were just as bad, Tommy may have had a drink, but that's none of his business, it was a party, a celebration, Tommy has got more to do with City than Ferris ever will, thankfully, and seems a lovely fella.
